GAMES

CUT
York Adams Area Council

One boy is the Director (“IT”) and the other boys are actors.  The Director gives them something to act out (like grocery shopping or building a house).  The Director calls out “action” and the actors begin to act.  When the Director calls “CUT!” everyone must stop.  If the Director sees anyone move after that, then the actor who moved becomes the Director.

LIGHTS
York Adams Area Council

This game is played in the dark at night in an open rectangular area (about 20 yards long by 10 yards wide).  The person designated “IT” stands at the “end line” of the area and the others line up at the “begin line.”  IT has a flashlight and listens to everyone approaching.  If he turns the flashlight onto anyone and catches him moving, that person starts back at the beginning.  The first one to get to the end line takes the place of IT.

CHARADES
York Adams Area Council

This is a game of acting, anyway.  Teach the boys some of the nuances of the game and then have them give it a whirl.  At the end of this section is a set of rules and gestures for the game.
